My brothers, It's great to see the joy and goodwill flowing through this thread.
Right on. I was in bed early and thankfully slept through the local shenanigans. My first memories of 2025 were my children making noise at 6am, giggling with my wife's encouragement, and saying "Dada!" This ritual may commence much earlier than I would like, but it is unquestionably an improvement to the things I'd woken up to in previous years.
Welcome to making it to another year after Christ was born. The people of the world may not know it, but they live by the life of Christ.
Now, I feel that 2025 will be
the year
The year to exercise better
The year to sleep better
The year to pray better
Finally. Been waiting a year to drop that reel.
More sincerely, I want to thank every member of CIK who has offered me encouragement and support over the past year and more. Even if we haven't met, and may never meet in person, I'm grateful for being a part of this small yet special community with you.
Wishing you all a joyous, calm, and meaningful 2025. Cheers
️
P.S.
Finished my night shift job just before midnight
Celebrated with coworkers while watching fireworks
Met possibly my future wife
Battled my way home through a CBD packed with minorities
In bed by 1:30, slept like a baby.
Happy 2025!
Looking forward to hearing the updates
